I've been focusing on my 308 Win load workup this week. I've finally settled on a powder, but I'm unsure about my seating depth. Would love to hear what seating depths others are using with similar projectiles. Please share your data!
I've been tweaking .308 seating depths too, and it really depends on your rifle's chamber. My concern is pushing too close to the lands, it is great for accuracy, but pressure spikes can get risky fast

For .308 Win, I've had pretty good luck seating around 2.800" COAL with 168gr HPBTs. But it really varies based on your specific chamber and how close you feel like getting to the lands. I typically start off about .020" away and then make little adjustments to see what helps tighten up those groups
